I've always used it but just found this online, stating it's in their T+C. Any other progs you'd recommend that do a similar thing? Yousendit app is very good. Shame.

weird. what does that really mean though?

if you want them to transfer the file to your recipient you need to grant them this right. If they want to use a third party to transfer the file then it needs to be transferable. Kind of like when a company asks if they can access your account information. But this is vaguely worded.

ah, that makes sense. So they can't just go and reproduce your files as they please?
- I'm not sure. Given the statement above it's possible they could unless they say somewhere else that they won't.ninjasavant

Why in the world would you rebrand yourself when you already have an established brand?
Why in the world would you rebrand yourself when you have a brand that is easy to remember?
Why in the world would you rebrand yourself when you have a brand that is easy to understand such as you send it?
And the first thing that comes to mind with "Hightail" i think of wine, more specifically "Yellow Tail" wine. www.yellowtailwine.com

^ because when i think of yousendit, i think of the shittiest file-sharing service ever. maybe they're trying to remedy that?

their video explains their thinking behind the name change.
tldw version: They felt 'yousendit' sounded like all the other companies in the space. They wanted differentiation.
